    Bigger sounding 36th Anni Bridge?

    I have a box of pups sitting around...spares, time to roll them through! I just found an old slash alnico 2 duncan. Short lead but i can make that work. Not zebra but I can live with it.

    Bigger sounding 36th Anni Bridge?

    Anyone try those tonerider pickups on Amazon? Great prices on those things and very good reviews. I'm willing to pay for a set of duncans but these seem to sound pretty good to my ears.

    Bigger sounding 36th Anni Bridge?

    I was just looking at those a 20 min ago.. I remember that I used to have an epiphone with Slash Alnico II in them and that bridge sound was kick ass. I think that might be what is in order here.

    Have one.. has these crazy nasal vowel mids! The original Paul Gilber pickup!

    Bigger sounding 36th Anni Bridge?

    I don't like many Dimarzios but I like the 36th anniversaries. In one of my LP clones, I have 500K pots and Dimarzio 36 anni neck and bridge. Neck sounds fantastic in this guitar. Hard to beat. the bridge is nice and crunchy and tight but it can feel a bit light in "girth" ( every woman's...

    Post the monent Face Really/Acne Freckley decided he didn't need to pracite any more.

    I agree that early KISS had a vibe. Peter was kick ass too and a huge part of that driving sound they had.

    Post the monent Face Really/Acne Freckley decided he didn't need to pracite any more.

    Ace has some cool memorable riffs and lead bits but I am always amazed at how such a mediocre and shitty for the most part guitar player was able to inspire millions and a total stud like Dimebag. It is fascinating. I mean, how do you go from a simple pentatonic scale in Love Gun to Cowboy's...

    New tune - video content

    Send it! Some of these guys charge so much but every now and again there is someone who will sing for a reasonable amount.

    New tune - video content

    Good singer..who is he? The tune reminds me of one of the better A.I power metal songs lol. I think that's a good thing.. AI is getting good!

    "I'm the One" Swing analyzed.....how good was Ed's swing?....

    What? Not that he wasn't precise but this guy isolated literally what, a 4 second clip?

    Celestion 25 watt Greenback and JBL 120

    Altecs are super expensive used though..I missed out on a pair for 500 cad years ago. This combo would be popular if someone could create a speaker with that signature.. or reissue the altecs!

    RUSH to Return for 2026 North American Tour

    Sadly just noise. Still has to be musical and I think she will do great in RUSH but that track is a never listen to again in my life.

    Black Label Society - Broken and Blind (Official Music Video) - Zakk brings it!!!

    100%. I find he also tends to lean Ozzy era Sabbath which I just can't get into. That said, it was nice to hear a more Pride n Glory style guitar solo and some well thought out phrasing compared to his usual super fast drenched in chorus and wah/vibe doodle runs. Still needs to tune up though.

    Guitar Pickups and the Roth Era VH Guitar Sound - Jim Gaustad

    Fantastic stuff! But let's be honest.. they all sound kickass. That variac really does make a diff when you get it that low doesn't it? That's my biggest take away for that tone. As for pickups, liked the Super D the best and then that Classic 57 A2. Hell any of em will do it for me.. as long as...

    Where is that latest monster EVH tone secrets thread?? Because Ross Hogarth slips up at 12:14 when telling an Ed story where he says " you have your MODDED Marshall .." as he is listing a few amps. He seems to suggest that Ed tinkered himself in his own stuff so they might just be a few simple...

    I'm guessing he blended tones between the plexi and the 5150's..but i also don't really care.

    New Synergy Marshall JMP module

    Yes that's the key.. you have to get used to it for what it is and not think of it exactly like the amp. Sort of it's own beast and temperament. I run my Vol I just over noon and that's enough gain for me for the Plexi tone I want. If I want more gain, I just go to a higher gain module.

    New Synergy Marshall JMP module

    Fek, what are you thinking after a few days on the module?? I'm liking mine now. I still love the Brahma, but for sure the JMP module has more depth and def more sag and squish making it more authentic. Can't push the gain too much though but I really like VOL II bright cap set in the middle...

    Hey, just my personal opinion but not like the couldn't get the job done.. or maybe I just hate the sound of his snare?? lol. Always have. Fuck that snare.
